morning, folks.
Having a bad time trying to get my email working on my new phone, desktop and this iPad my wife handed down to me. I think it's a central problem with the company that hosts my email They say it' s my end. If my laptop arrives from being repaired, I will be able to sort my end out since the email set up should be unchanged. Might have to bring Thunder Gerbil for help...[ram27bat]

At the kia dealership, spending my boat money... Brakes and AC have gotten extensive...

Wish I knew something about working on cars, but last time I popped the hood on a car it didn't look anything like my 72 opel, so I slammed it shut and never bothered looking again...

Yup... AC had a leak... Brake pads all around... Oil change... Air filter change.... $1200...

Usually, I'd buy an air filter from AutoZone and change myself... I'd have Wal-Mart do the oil... I'd have midas do the brakes... And I'd probably pay some guy on Facebook to recharge the AC (which wouldn't have worked since there's a leak)...

But now - in these times - I'm willing to pay the extra $300-$500 to not have to go to Wal-Mart, not have to go to AutoZone, not have to go to midas, and not have to search on Craigslist for a solution that ultimately won't fit my problem...

My BIL was down because his old cat had just passed away. I said; Don't be too sad, it's not like it was a dog or something. Not sure he appreciated my empathy.

And it was a 72, but I owned it in 98... Slightly less cool at that point...

Losing a cat hurts just as much as a dog. I still miss my old cooncat that spent 19 years with me and the more recent cat we rescued. I also miss my 2 dogs that preceded the cats and required much more attention.

Making homemade Taco Bell crunchwraps today.

Haven't had Taco Bell since we were on vacation and stopped in ATL to visit the zoo. I think that was three years ago now. Maybe four.

But I ate a crunchwrap when I was there and enjoyed it. So I'm gonna make em for dinner, but with real meat n veggies n stuff.

This one only had 60,000 miles when we got it in 96.... Sister drove it for a couple of years before me... It was in the shop at least 3 times a year...

When I got it, my grandpa replaced the fuel pump and i got a weber 32/36(?) I think it was called? Ran a lot better after that...

I was also really into wiring at that point so I replaced the old glass fuses with something that could support my numerous amps and sub woofers...

I was such a stupid kid...

My Yeti cooler came today.

I was super excited until I opened it.

That fuzzing thing is TINY!!! I matched dimensions to the coolers I normally use - Coleman Xtreme 70qt. But the two Colemans I got the lid has ripped out of the hinges and I thought getting something a lot more durable would be worthwhile.

But internally it's 9x10x18. Internal on my others is 12x13x25. When I bought it I guess I was looking at external dimensions. For $300 I expected a LOT more. I don't think this thing could hold much more than one big bag of ice and be full without any other cargo.

Already printed return label, gonna drop it off in a bit.
